This handsome portrait is of Robert "Robbie" Buchanan, who went to high school in Lake Oswego. It was painted probably late 60's to 1970. This was a second portrait of two, done by talented portrait artist Richard H. Wiley. Robbie Buchanan or his family selected the other portrait to keep, back when it was commissioned. The family of the artist would like to contact Robbie Buchanan or his family to give them the second portrait should they care to have it.

If anyone recognizes Robert Buchanan and knows how to get in touch with him or any of his family, please use this contact info: Ryan Wiley (son of painter Richard H. Wiley), rhw8006@hotmail.com
